City of Niagara Falls invites residents to participate in Community Decision Making engagement

NIAGARA FALLS, ON-  Residents know their community's needs better than anyone. They have great ideas for making it healthier, better connected, and more vibrant. That's why the City of Niagara Falls created the Community Decision Making pilot program, where residents can vote on the ideas they want to see come to life. Through this program, $350,000 from the City's Capital Budget is available to enhance parks and trails across the city!

The City's Recreation, Culture, & Parks Plan (2021) reported more than 98 initiatives to improve our community for all. Staff have identified 17 initiatives from that Plan that could be funded through the Community Decision Making program. They range in size from updating a pool or skateboard park to erecting a Little Free Library in a park location.

Community Decision Making allows residents to be involved in shaping their community to be a better place to live while collaborating with their municipal government.
